Water Concern: Public facilities like malls or entertainment centers require water for general human use. These applications range from drinking fountains to toilet water. Therefore, a systemic water filtration system would best suit the requirements for all the applications. Supplying water from a well source usually includes an abundance of elevated parameters. The concern for this customer was reducing the TDS levels to accommodate the intended applications of the facility. This customer had a well water supply that contained 8,000 PPM TDS and was looking to produce 600,000 GPD.

Applied Solution: This industrial brackish RO equipment was recommended and constructed for a public mall facility in Kuwait. The capacity of this RO equipment was 600,000 GPD and the product is intended to be the main supply of water for the facility. This system includes the necessary pre-treatment and post-treatment units that keep the RO equipment functioning efficiently without any problems. Part of this pre-treatment is duplex multimedia filter to reduce turbidity and suspended solids. The pre-treated water continues on to a 5-micron cartridge filter to further reduce any leftover suspended solids and is injected with sodium metabisulfite along with antiscalant for chlorine reduction prior to reaching the RO membranes. Then, the water is pressurized by high-pressure pumps through the RO membranes that will raise the pressure to 300 PSI. The water exiting the system results in a product and reject stream.

Low operating cost, compact size, reduced footprint, and high quality production of freshwater.
